I think we can keep this one here for now. Great find @red22

I personally was unaware of this sort of thing. I´ve known people who have used Nitrous all my life and I´ve used Nitrous plenty of times. I guess this could be a simple case of people not ever really having an unlimited amount of Nitrous. You might go to a concert, do some balloons, you might even have a giant Dentist´s tank of your own. At the end of the day though, it was never a drug that was totally ubiquitous in any way. I think even for ¨heavy users¨ it was nothing like this guy who just did these cans constantly.

I had always heard whispers of potential issues. Likewise, I had not actually encountered many people on here who had these problems so I never paid much attention to this substance. I was familiar with the B deficiency issues, though I did not know how severe the issues could get. Very informative.

I suspect there is something else going on here like not getting enough oxygen.

Propably vitamin b-12 deficiency. That is how nitrous oxide causes damage to myelin sheath. I remember when I had 600 pieces of nitrous oxide I ate a lot of vitamin b-12 to avoid harms.

Nitrous oxide depletes vitamin b-12 storages. So it is basically a vitamin deficiency that causes those damages but apparently many don't know that and act accordingly. Baclofen treatment combained with b-12 and other vitamins would do very good for myelin sheats. Baclofen is incredibly anabolic to brain.

I think this is a really important topic, but we do have this covered already in our article section. We can leave this up for now, as I think there is real value in this knowledge. I see this stuff popping up more and more frequently. I'm going to circle back y'all.

I take a B-12 supplement and my blood tests all come back OK. I have been doing nitrous for 45 years and usually a lot at a time. (typically 3-4 KG these days) So far so good and I am 80. Something else is going to kill me I imagine.

I do not have instagram -- what is this all about? I use to love the monster orange nitrous drinks, had a couple a day for extended periods.....than they vanished from the shelves.

I always wondered if nitrogenating the soda instead of carbonating it would have health effects -- I just liked the flavor.

Pharmaceutical grade?
